Tours
Prospective interns are encouraged to visit the Beth Israel Deaconess Campus and to contact the program with any questions. Tours will be available most Fridays at 12 noon, in Rabb B-06 at BIDMC East Campus, 330 Brookline Avenue, between November 1st through the end of January each year (except Christmas and New Years weeks).
All tours begin at noon and last approximately 45 minutes. We are in close proximity to the Brigham and Women's Hospital, and have coordinated our tours to take into account their tour times for prospective intern convenience. It is very important for you to call us if you are planning on attending a tour. Tours will be given by a current dietetic intern and/or the dietetic internship coordinator. Please notify us if you are planning to attend a tour by phone call or e-mail.
